schlubens Posted March 16, 2007 Report Share Posted March 16, 2007 Hi,I read a similar post, but could not find more info on my problem.I needed to clean everything off my computer to give it the new computer feel. I saved all of my files and torrents on an external. Now that I am setting utorrent back up, i have tried adding my existing torrents so i could continue seeding them. when i added them however, they began to download, although I already have them. Help please!! Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted March 16, 2007 Report Share Posted March 16, 2007 Are you sure you pointed µTorrent to the correct location on disk? If so, try forcing a recheck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
schlubens Posted March 16, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 16, 2007 sorry, i was pretty vague in my post. i dont even know what the whole point thing is. hopefully this is the problem. how do i do that? i read somewhere that i open a text document and type a bunch of stuff that makes no sense to me. is this true? thanks again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted March 17, 2007 Report Share Posted March 17, 2007 There is no reason to edit the .torrent file.Just doubleclick on the .torrent file and tell µTorrent where your files are now. If you told it wrong it will try to download them again, so if it does that...STOP that torrent and change the location again, (either by removing the torrent from µTorrent's list or by right-click on the torrent, advanced, set download location)...then do force recheck on the torrent files.

schlubens Posted March 27, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 27, 2007 thanks for the help. i tried the right click, but there is not an advanced tab. only general. any other ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted March 27, 2007 Report Share Posted March 27, 2007 Yes there is, you're clicking in the wrong place. Right-click ON the torrent file in the top window in µTorrent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Switeck Posted April 6, 2007 Report Share Posted April 6, 2007 There's lots of "hidden" menus in µTorrent.Not your fault to not know them all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
